Ten sermons tending chiefly to the fitting of men for the worthy receiving of the Lords Supper Wherein amongst many other holy instructions: the doctrines of sound repentance and humiliation, and of Gods special favours unto penitent sinners, and worthy communicants are largely and effectually handled. The six first, by I. Dod. The four last, by R. Cleaver. Whereunto is annexed, a plain and learned metaphrase on the epistle to the Colossians, written by a godly and judicious preacher. There is also set before the sermons, a short dialogue of preparation: containing the chief points that concern the worthy receiving of the Lords Supper, taken for the most part, out of the sermons following: and collected into a method for the benefit and ease of those that desire direction in this matter.Ten sermons tending chiefely to the fitting of men for the worthy receiuing of the Lords Supper VVherein amongst many other holy instructions: the doctrines of sound repentance and humiliation, and of Gods speciall fauours vnto penitent sinners, and worthy communicants are largely and effectually handled.

And considering that the blessing of all labour dependeth upon the Lord, our beginning is with hearty prayer unto God for the grace and favour of God, to be freely given, together with all blessings, both of this life, and of that which is to come, from GOD ⟨p. 84⟩the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, to you Colossians; yet not all that dwell in that city, but to those which by faith are Saints and brethren, not in the flesh, but in Jesus Christ.
